Five Ways to Wellbeing

Live Life Well at School

It’s never too late to give your family’s wellbeing a high priority. The ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing’ will help you to develop a wellbeing plan for your family.

Talk about your plan as a family, and schedule it into your family recreation time. How will your family connect, be active, take notice, keep learning and give back?

Using the Five Ways to Wellbeing with your family

  • have a regular family dinner and encourage your child to invite a friend
  • participate in school activities or events to meet other school families
  • organise a weekly family board game
  • plan inside or outside games where everyone can have fun together
  • make time for important people in your life.

  • walk, ride, jog or swim together before or after school
  • play sport together
  • go hiking
  • go camping
  • go for a bush walk
  • explore your neighbourhood.

  • encourage your child to think of three things they are grateful for each day
  • teach your child how to meditate
  • teach your child to notice things or people that make them happy.

  • take up a new hobby as a family and learn together
  • get your child to teach you the language they are learning at school
  • travel and learn about different cultures and places
  • learn about the history of your community
  • find out about your family history.

  • give your time as a family to a cause that is important to you
  • help at school events
  • support elderly neighbours
  • volunteer at a community event
  • challenge everyone in the family to do something kind for someone else.
